Folder Options> View : Remove check next to "use simple folder view."

This one is trickier. Showing zip files as folders is a builtin "feature"
of the operating system. One way to turn it off is to unregister the
zipfldr.dll file. However when you need to create or extract files from a
zip, the .dll file must be registered again.

The commands can be typed into the Start> Run box. When they have completed
a message will appear that the user needs to acknowledge (click OK).
To disable: regsrv32 /u zipfldr.dll
